MNspin now accepting new music submissions for 2025
After a year-long hiatus, Hennepin County Library is again searching for Minnesota musicians to feature on MNspin, the library’s free music streaming service. The annual submission period is open April 14-May 17, 2025.
Submit a song
Minnesota musicians and bands of all genres are invited to visit the MNspin submission page and upload one song for consideration. A panel of local music experts and library staff will review all submissions and invite selected artists to make one album available through the online platform. Selected artists will be offered a license agreement and receive $250.
Hennepin County employees and children under 15 are ineligible to participate.
